Is Ringo Deathstar the greatest band name ever? Correct. The best band name is "A Ringo Ate My Bay-bee"

Is Ringo Deathstar the greatest band name ever? I always enjoyed Scary Kids Scaring Kids. It also used to be so edgy to include the F word in your band name, but now it's extremely cliche. I predict the C word will be the new F word in the next couple years.

I was at a show last night, and 30 minutes into the opening band, a women standing behind me taps me on the shoulder, and says, "excuse me, you are very tall, and you are in my way." Meanwhile, there was a group of wasted chad and tracys behind us screaming at each other, causing many in the crowd to give them looks of disaproval.
How am I the bad guy in this scenerio. I almost told her, "I'll text my parents right now that you are pissed at them for creating a tall child," but instead I directed her to the ample space in front of me, where she eventually moved. I've said it several times, I don't get how tall people are worse than loud people at concerts. I don't push my way forward, or get in anyone's way, but if I'm there first, it's not my fault if you showed up after me.

Greatest band name I've ever seen was on a flier and I have no idea what they sound like: "My Spine Is the Bassline." So dumb and yet so brashly awesome.
Tall people are a hassle but they have nothing on obnoxious bitches waving camera phones in my face or loud talkers. Especially during the headliner. Holy fuck dude if you're done seeing music just leave.

My mom was in a band in the seventies called "contraband" which I always liked. Also "The Cunning Stunts" but I'm pretty sure I've heard that somewhere else too?

I don't push my way forward, or get in anyone's way, but if I'm there first, it's not my fault if you showed up after me. At Portishead a guy tapped me on the shoulder and said, "I can't see anything, so can I stand in front of you?" I just said, "I'm sorry, I can't help that I'm tall," because, while he was very polite, the floor was completely packed, so what he was basically asking was, "Can I stand where you're standing? You have a better spot." After I denied him, he said, "but I can't see." I wanted to say, "well, dude, nobody can see through me, I'm sorry you have to be the one to try." It really is ridiculous to insist that short people stand in front of taller people. Just because I'm tall doesn't mean I have better eyesight. Thank you know for inciting this rant.

Sorry, Pea! It is just because the best band name is the one I made up for our Rockband band. Dear Ndugu.

With all of this recent talk about Bjork possibly headlining certain 2012 festivals, I figure this would be a good time to give her music another shot. I've checked into her a couple times in the past, but never really made a great attempt at absorbing any of her material. Can anyone recommend a good starting point?

Start at the beginning, for sure. Debut, Post, and - to a lesser extent - Homogenic are all incredible records.
Sadly it is all downhill from there, ranging from boring (Vespertine) to grating (Medulla) to unlistenable (Volta).

Post is my favorite. Pretty wild shit there. Watch the video for 'I Miss You' - that's Bjork in a nutshell.

It's saying that five staff members have been logged in in the last 24 hours. Am I missing something?
